Chapter 0833: Alice's Decision
Grim and the others had only left Dry Water City for less than half a moon, and everything here had become so unfamiliar.
The original blue sky had now turned a dark red, and strange and brilliant ribbons of elemental light floated and stirred in the air, intertwining with each other, forming a magnificent and grotesque terrifying scene.
All the orcs within a thousand miles of Dry Water City were either captured by the witches, or moved farther away with their families, so the strange scene here did not completely leak out.
Before Grim entered the orc chamber, he looked up at the free phantom light in the sky that was almost pressing down on the roof, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, there was not much time left for the orcs!
These unpredictable and beautiful multicolored lights are not imaginary, but real.
They are mainly composed of magical elements leaking from inside and outside the Dry City, and also indicate that the sacrifice ritual that the Death Witches are preparing has actually begun. It was only in order to avoid startling the snakes and triggering a riot on the orc side that it was not launched on a large scale.
Ksuna, the leader of the Death Witches, was waiting in the council chamber with a leisurely attitude, without any expression on her delicate and cold countenance. This also made Grim speculate more than once whether the other party had concocted his body into a corpse-like existence.
Otherwise, with the habit of the Death Witch to contact and absorb negative energy all year round, the flesh and blood on her body should not be retained. Of course, it is not excluded that this witch leader has practiced some kind of secret method, which can maintain his appearance from being eroded by negative energy.
However, as a Death Witch, she refuses to fully embrace the power of death, which is obviously not in line with the essence of the Death Witch. Therefore, Grim was quite sure that the other party's delicate and perfect face and skin were not covered with fresh flesh and blood, but rotten flesh that had been completely ossified and necrotic.
If there is no secret technique to cover it, I am afraid that the terrible corpse smell of the other party can be clearly smelled three miles away!
It is this kind of realization that keeps Grim from being confused by the other party's cold and beautiful appearance. For a Rank 4 witch, the greatest value in her body is the terrifying power of death, not the so-called skin and face.
Seeing Grim and Alice walking into the hall side by side, a trace of anger appeared in the heart of Ksuna, the leader of the Death Witches.
This Alice, why is it so useless! She didn't seem to bewitch the wizard, but was bewitched by the other party...... How could such a witch be worthy of being one of the many chieftains?
This is actually a common mentality of all Northland witches!
In the Northlands, in the realm of witches, the only ones who can enjoy luxury and honor are powerful witches. As for those male witches, they will either become subordinates or 'favorite concubines', and no male witch will be allowed to rise above the Northland witches.
This perverted and extreme 'witch supremacy' is the dominant ideology among the Northland witches!
As for male and female love, as for the love of flesh and hypocrisy, it does not exist in the minds of most Northland witches. If it weren't for the personal needs and reproduction considerations, I am afraid that many extreme Northland witches would lock off the entire Northland, preventing any male witches from entering it to bewitch or seduce those young witches who are not strong enough.
In Ksuna's view, Alice, as the leader of the Witch of Destiny, did not control the witch in the palm of her hand like a plaything, but allowed him to enter and exit with herself, eat and live together, which ...... It's a sign of her corruption and depravity!
However, Alice is the leader of a faction after all, although the level is only 2, but she has the same power as Ksuna in the witches' council. So even though she was unhappy in her heart, Ksuna still didn't show it, but became more calm and calm.
"You're back so soon, isn't the task assigned to you already complete?"
The tone was cold and unwarm.
But for a Tier 4 witch, her attitude towards Grim and Alice was 'gentle' enough! If she was a Tier 2 wizard, she wouldn't even have a chance to stand up in front of Ksuna.
Don't look at the 4th-order witch in front of her, with delicate eyebrows, beautiful face, and the posture of a little woman. But she stood proudly on the back of the 4th-order corpse dragon Artest, and fought against the heroic posture of the 4th-order blue sky wings, Grim still remembered it vividly, and he didn't dare or forget!
"It's done. Alice smiled slightly: "This is what we brought back......"
At her signal, Grim waved his hand, and three large flags full of orc-like animal skins appeared in the center of the hall. As soon as the banner appeared, the orc council hall was overturned by an inexplicable violent and savage aura, and the rumbling drums of the orcs filled with a majestic and desolate aura faintly echoed in people's ears.
Warhammer, Dhaka, and Panyan Tribes......
Ksuna nodded expressionlessly, once again acknowledging their achievement.
There were more than a dozen witch teams out, and the only one who could complete the mission and return to Dry Water City was Alice. Seriously, their task is not the hardest, but it is not the easiest. They were able to come back the first to come back before the other teams, which also showed the strength and efficiency of Alice's team.
You know, there are many Tier 3 witches in other witch teams. And in Alice's team, except for the unruly 3rd Order Brontosaurus, there seems to be no other high-level witches.
Since the other party has completed the task, it is natural to have the reward he deserves!
As soon as Ksuna flipped her palm, three balls of magic light of different colors floated in front of her.
"These are the three high-level knowledge that we have agreed on in advance, and you can take them. Remember, only witch insiders are allowed to use it, not outside......"
Grim, who was standing behind Alice without saying a word, had a bright flame shining in his black pupils, and his heart couldn't help but fluctuate.
This...... It is the only three high-level knowledge that he currently lacks.
As long as you get them, it's only a matter of time before you become a Tier 3 wizard yourself!
As if able to sense the heat in Grim's heart, Alice glanced at him lightly, signaled him to calm down with her eyes, and then stepped forward to take the three magic light balls into her arms one by one.
"Now that you've achieved your goal, will you still be involved in the next battle?if you're willing to continue fighting for us Death Witches, I've got something you can use......"
This time, Ksuna took out a strange magic lamp, the ancient and old lamp was engraved with dense mysterious patterns, and the magic aura that overflowed from it was the power of fate that made Alice's heart move.
"Destiny Guide......" Alice recited the name of the magic lamp in an almost verbal voice. Looking at her expression, there is a lot of reluctance and fierce struggle.
The Guide of Fate, a magical weapon of fate handed down by ancient witches.
This artifact is of no use at all if it falls into the hands of other wizards, but in the hands of a witch of destiny like Alice, it has a strange power no less than that of a 'small artifact'. If Alice can ignite this weapon of fate with her own hands before swimming in the river of fate, then she will never be in danger of getting lost in the forks and tributaries of fate.
Even in the most dangerous situation, the Destiny Guide can bring her soul back to her body safely!
This is the true meaning of the existence of the Destiny Guide!
Finally, Alice moved her nostalgic gaze away from the magic lamp, and said categorically in an almost rupture tone, "No. Our Witch of Destiny is not strong enough to participate in the battle that follows, and I hope to be able to return to the wizarding world as soon as possible!"
Grim, who was standing behind Alice, hesitated a few times before finally giving up his mouth.
"Alright then!" Ksuna smiled faintly, "You still need to stay in Dry Water City for three more days." Three days later, it was time for us to perform the sacrificial ceremony. Before the ceremony begins, we will open the teleportal and send a group of people away, and you can choose to leave at that time. Alright, you can go down and rest. Remember, in the past three days in the city, don't leave the station for half a step, otherwise something will happen, and our Death Witch will not be responsible......"
Ksuna's words were no joke.
When Grim and Alice returned to the orc mansion with their family members, the gate was blocked by a group of necromancers.
No matter how big the orc mansion is, it is filled with hundreds of metal magic weapons, and then dozens of magic energy chariots are thrown in, and it becomes full, and there is almost no place to stand and rest. Fortunately, there was no need for a place to rest for the metal magic machines, and the dozen or so goblins were crammed into a room, which made enough space for a few Crimson wizards.
However, when he came back this time, the orc servants and maids in the original mansion had all disappeared. If it weren't for the fact that Thunder Dragon Arms always brought 4 interracial beauties with him, I'm afraid Grim and the others wouldn't even be able to find a cook lady.
Before returning to the orc mansion and entering their respective rooms, Grim glanced up at the dark red sky that was almost illuminated by the phantom light, and finally couldn't help but ask Alice, "Why did you refuse Ksuna? That thing seems to be of great help to you!"
Alice's figure stopped at the door, did not turn around, and silently shook her head: "It's not worth it! No matter how important equipment is, it is not as important as life......"
"You mean...... Is there danger here?" Grim was shocked.
"It's not that there will be, but there must be danger!" Alice chuckled, "Don't underestimate those gods because of the ease of these days. Once we show our true power, we ...... It's just a bunch of ants that are a little stronger!"
Grim was silent for a moment, then nodded silently.
At this moment, the plane war in front of us already has a hint of getting out of control.
Once the beast god A* discovers the witch's true intentions, he will surely retaliate like madness. At that time, the war here will certainly escalate rapidly.
At that time, even a Rank 4 witch may not be able to become a master on the battlefield. And their group of second-order wizards are probably really like Alice described, they have become some slightly stronger ants!
It's better to get out of here sooner......
Grim immediately dispelled the idea of watching the excitement, and felt a strong retreat.
